Looking for some advice. 3" ID with a small area to probe

Hi,

Is it unreasonable to try and measure a radius that in 1.5" over a small part of the arc? The length of the arc is approx .400"

I attempted this but the results are not correct and are unreliable.

I'm very new to CMM and not sure of this is what I can expect from the poor setup or just my lack of skill and knowledge in the approach.

Here is the punch I am trying to measure.

Since you have such a small segment, your uncertainty goes through the roof. Which is why your numbers aren't repeating/accurate.
Profile with a min max tolerance perhaps.

Shape control as opposed to trying to measure a circle segment with such a small range to acquire its size and no opposing points to lock in its position.

These threads were useful to me on the same subject
